A Riddle - On Snow
From Heaven I fall, though from earth I begin.
No lady alive can show such a skin.
I'm bright as an angel, and light as a feather,
But heavy and dark, when you squeeze me together.
Though candor and truth in my aspect I bear,
Yet many poor creatures I help to insnare.
Though so much of Heaven appears in my make,
The foulest impressions I easily take.
My parent and I produce one another,
The mother the daughter, the daughter the mother.

i love snow! we got a little here yesterday.
We just bought a Canon Rebel XSi. Don't you love it?? I am so glad that we don't have snow! Although, it doesn't seem like it's anywhere close to Christmas since we're used to Idaho weather.
That it! I am loosing my camera on the way home from Hawaii in April! I think I will take out the memory card first!
Becky, I am SO BEHIND on everyone's blogs... it is such a busy time of year! Taking two classes is pretty much sending me over the edge...
I love the "New Moon" in your house (thanks for the laugh), and I'm SO SORRY you didn't get your camera back. Maui looks AMAZING, I'm SUPER JEALOUS, and I seriously can't believe that Naomi is already 10 months old. You guys seem equally busy over there!!!
Have a happy Thanksgiving, and know that I'll be back to stalk you more regularly after Christmas when my classes are finally OVER!!!
Ohhh snow.....I miss it. Colby keeps asking when its going to snow.
